The end of the term is rapidly approaching, it is always surprising how quickly a school term passes.

Term 1 ending always coincides with autumn and the end of daylight saving and this week's weather has been a stark reminder that winter is on its way - for the next few weeks we will be inundated with leaves!

While it is nearing the end of the term it is still a very busy time. Tournament week will be coming to a close and we have had sportspeople virtually the length of the country, from Invercargill to Lake Karapiro. We will be able to give a summary of how they all went next week.

Next week we have Junior Parent Teacher interviews on Tuesday afternoon (in person) and all-day Thursday (online). This is a great opportunity to get an update on how things are progressing with your children's teachers, so I encourage you to book in.

We also have our Scholars assembly on Wednesday. This is a special time where we acknowledge and celebrate the academic achievements of our students and we congratulate the students involved.
